The Metrics section lets you define custom packet counters scoped to a specific port or range of ports. Each metric tracks how many ingress TCP and UDP packets have been received on the specified destination port(s) since the metric was created, updated continuously in a background thread every 100 ms.Documentation Index

What a metric tracks
Each metric records:- Port or port range — a single port (e.g.
443) or a contiguous range (e.g.5555-9999) - TCP count — number of ingress TCP packets whose destination port falls within the range
- UDP count — number of ingress UDP packets whose destination port falls within the range
Adding a metric
Open the Metrics Explorer form
Press
n. A popup titled Metrics Explorer appears with a single input field labelled Port Packet Counter.Enter a port or range
Type a single port number or a hyphen-separated range:The form shows example hints:
443, 8080, 5555-9999.Confirm
Press
Enter to validate and create the metric. If the input is not a valid port number or range (e.g. the start is greater than or equal to the end), an error is shown in red inline.Port ranges are exclusive on the upper bound — entering
5555-9999 monitors destination ports 5555 through 9998 inclusive.Metric display
Each metric is rendered as a horizontal bar chart with two bars:- TCP — cumulative ingress TCP packet count for the port range
- UDP — cumulative ingress UDP packet count for the port range
Port: <n> for a single port or Ports: <start>-<end> for a range. The selected metric is highlighted with a magenta border; others use a gray border.
